Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990–2000): Season 8, Episode 17 - The Elephant's Father - full transcript

Two new people start working at the Wyatt Free Clinic with Kelly who are Jeff, a new medical intern, and Valerie who is serving community service for her bookmaking, where Kelly also tries ...

I can't believe Emma
gave Kelly that tape.

Oh, what a psycho!

Well, I'm the psycho, man.

So, you made a mistake.

I did more than that.

I ruined what Kelly and I had.

I did it with my eyes
wide open, brother.

This has been the
worst night of my life.

Not now, Val. Excuse me,

I was just in jail, okay?

How long could you
have been in jail?



I just saw you at the club.

And tomorrow I have the honor

of being sentenced

for my crime against humanity.

All I did was take a few bets.

They don't put people in
jail for just taking a few bets.

No, they don't. You know what?

People play the lottery.
That's gambling, right?

Do they get busted?
No, I don't think so.

What are you two so
bummed out about?

Cable out?

Kelly moved out.

What?

What happened?!



Doesn't matter. Wow.

Is this, like, a
permanent thing?

I don't know.

Brandon, I'm, I'm really sorry.
If there's anything I can do...

Stop it, okay? What?

I'm just trying to be a friend.

I know exactly what
you're trying to do.

So why don't you just go

and have your
little celebration?

It's obviously
killing you not to.

What did I say?

Look, why don't you just
quit while you're ahead, okay?

You've hated Kelly since
the first day you met her.

So don't give me this song
and dance about being sorry.

Well, I'm just trying
to be supportive.

Stop it, all right?

Because you don't mean
a word you're saying.

And frankly, I'm in
no mood to hear it.

I didn't know where else to go.

What's wrong?

Brandon cheated on me.

What?!

I was hoping

I could have my old room back.

Yeah, of course.

Oh, God, I'm so sorry.

Hey, I heard the bell.

Thanks.

Um, do you mind if we
just have a minute alone?

Oh, it's okay. I don't
have anything to hide.

Unlike Brandon.

He, um...

he, uh, had an affair with
that writer girl Emma Bennett.

I can't believe it.

Wasn't she passing herself
off as your friend or something?

Every time I would call
his work looking for him,

he said he was out chasing
a story; he was with her.

How'd you find out?

She, um... she
played me this tape

of the two of them
talking about having sex.

You know the watch
that he gave me

for Christmas? That was

a gift that she had given him,

and he just passed it off on me.

He was sleeping with her the
whole time, and I had no clue.

Look, um, I'm gonna let you
two talk, and I'm gonna crash

in Zach's room and give
you your old room back.

No, you don't have to.

It's already a done deal.

He said it only
happened one time, but I...

I just don't know what
to believe, you know?

I don't get this.

I mean you guys have
something that's so great.

"Had" something.

Kel...

It's over.

We're through.

Kel, don't do this.

I'm fine.

Look, one call to
my dad at the clinic,

you've got a sick day.

No. I think that work will
get my mind off of Brandon.

Besides, I can't
watch any more TV.

I'm afraid to see
everything I bought.

I stopped after the
glow-in-the-dark trolls.

I'll see you later.

Hello.

It's me.

Brandon, hey.

I know she's there.

Are you sure?

You know what? Kel's not here.

Come on, Donna,
I know she's there.

Put her on the phone.

Look, Brandon, the truth is,

Kelly doesn't want to
talk to you right now.

Maybe I should just come over.

No, that's not a good idea.

You can't run
interference forever.

I have a right to talk to her.

I don't think so. Not
after what you did.

Thanks, Donna,
you're a real pal.

Yeah, I'm trying to be.

I thought that judge
would never shut up.

I mean, he kept going on and
on about the evils of bookmaking.

I mean, you would think

we'd been stabbing
people or something.

Judge Vance has a
healthy respect for the law.

Really?

Then how come Noah only
got his liquor license suspended

for a week, and I have to suffer

through 50 hours of
community service?

I mean, isn't there something
in the law about equal justice?

I wasn't the one
doing the bookmaking.

I told you to stop, you didn't.

If anyone got a
raw deal, it was me.

Look, Miss Malone, it
was either pay the fine

and do the community service
or spend up to a year in jail.

Want me to go back to the
judge and ask him for option B?

No.

Here's your assignment.

What are we gonna do about this?

We're not gonna do anything
about it. And for the record,

you're no longer
working at the After Dark.

Oh, and I thought I
already got my sentence.

You know, Val maybe community
service will be good for you.

You can help the less fortunate.

Oh.

Oh, yeah, that's gonna be tough

because right now,
I'm the only one

who's less fortunate.

Sorry I'm late, Dr. Martin.

Okay, if everybody
could just sign in,

the doctor will
be right with you.

Kelly?

I'm fine. It's just been
one of those mornings.

You're allowed.

Uh, Jeff, Kelly. Kelly, Jeff.

He's an intern from the
University of San Francisco

who'll be doing a
rotation here at the clinic.

Dr. Martin tells me this
place couldn't run without you.

He exaggerates.

Look, I got some
patients to see.

Give him the
grand tour, will you?

Sure, sure. Just
one second, okay?

You seem preoccupied.

Is that your
professional opinion?

No.

My professional opinion is
you seem very preoccupied.

It's amazing what you can
learn in four years of med school.

I'll give you that tour now.

Show you around.

Excuse me.

What happened?

I was in a car accident.

How long ago did it happen?

Uh, an hour, maybe two.

Did you lose consciousness?

It wasn't that bad.

And there were no witnesses.

I mean, I, I hit a parked car.

All right,

the exam room's in the back.

Come on.

I really want to surprise Carly.

I was thinking maybe
a musical or something.

You're the music expert,
so what do you think?

Uh, Rent.

Rent?

Yeah, hottest ticket in town.

She'll love it.

Hey, um, column inches
for your next review.

Oh, uh, no, I'm, I'm
done slamming people.

Dave?

Hmm? You're the critic here.

We pay you to
criticize. Thank you.

Yeah, I-I know.

I just... I've got
a better idea.

Ahh! Come on!

You gonna write about
what's bugging Mr. Happy?

No! Actually, I, uh,

was gonna do a
piece on Jasper's Law,

this great local band.

Follow them around,
see how they do

what they do, you know...
It could be really cool.

Maybe it's a cover story.

Here we go.

Why don't you pull it
back a little bit, tiger?

Oh, I'm sorry, Steve.

I was just trying to get the
copier to actually make a copy.

Is that too much to ask?

What's with you?

I slept with Emma, and
Kelly broke up with me.

Guess I might as
well just tell everyone.

Well, that explains it.

Explains what, Silver?

Why you've been beating up

the copy machine for
the past ten minutes.

And what's your point?
I'm sorry, my point?

Yeah, what's your point?
Dude, what's wrong with you?

All I was saying was
that you were beating up...

Hey, you started
this! Let's finish it.

What, what are you
taking this out on me for?

Brandon, Bran,

come on. Back off.

It's not his fault.

You're right, it's my fault.

It's my fault.
Everything's my fault.

El Niño, the earthquakes,

the fires,

Malibu sliding into the
ocean, it's all my fault.

Bottom line, they're suspending
my liquor license for a week.

Val got community service.

You had no idea
what she was doing?

Nope. But you know what?

I don't have to worry
about Val anymore.

I fired her.

Really? Well, finally,
some good news.

Yesterday was the day from hell.

I mean, first, you get arrested,

and then Brandon
and Kelly break up,

which I still don't get.

I mean, they were
so happy together.

Well, the guy made
a mistake. It happens.

Well, I think sleeping
with someone else

is a little bit more
than a mistake.

It's called a flaw in
the male technology.

Some guys have
trouble staying faithful.

You don't actually believe that?

I don't think it's right
he slept with Emma,

but if she loves
him, she'll get over it.

Why should she
have to get over it?

She's not the one who cheated.

Look, it's her call. Does
she love the guy or not?

Does commitment not
mean anything to you?

Of course it does,
but nobody's perfect.

At least nobody I know.

I mean, it's not black or white.

Really? Well, I'm
sorry, I think it is.

Hey, get out the evening
wear, reserve the babysitter,

next Saturday night you and
I have front row seats to Rent.

Hey, that's not the
desired response.

What's wrong?

My father had a heart attack.

I'm sorry.

A patient relations official

called from the
hospital in Montana.

He's, um, undergoing
quadruple bypass surgery.

I'm sorry.

Well, this is major
surgery, Steve.

What if he doesn't make it?

How is she?

Worse than it appears. I
think she's been beaten.

Did she tell you that?

No, in fact, when I
asked her, she denied it.

But the restraint-related
bruises on her neck and arms

are far less common
in accident victims

than in victims of abuse.

What can we do?

Well, I can fill
out a police report

but until she
makes a complaint...

Or gets beaten to a pulp.

All they do is keep it on file.

Okay, go ahead and
gloat and get it over with.

Please, when the court called
and told me you were coming in,

I was disappointed.

I thought that surely
you'd be going to jail

for the crimes you committed.

Well, apparently the judge
figures that working for you

is a harsher sentence.

Are all these people sick?

This is a clinic, not a spa.

Ugh, I can't take sick people.

They're so infectious.

So, have you talked
to Brandon lately?

That's none of your business.

He seemed like he was in a
really good mood this morning.

Happy, you know,
like a huge burden

had been lifted off of him.

You know, Val, I
think it's gonna be

really good for
you working here.

You're gonna get in touch
with your domestic side.

Di-Did you say domestic? Yeah.

The clinic could
use a good maid.

Okay, well, thank
you for talking to me.

Mommy, want to see my picture?

I'll look at it in a
minute, sweetie.

I need to talk to
Steve for a sec.

We're making a zoo in school,

and I made the first picture.

I'll look at it in a minute.

Well, the good news is,

my dad made it
through the surgery.

Oh, that's great news.

But the bad news is, he's
looking at a very long recovery.

So, I've been trying to arrange

for a nurse to take care of him

when he gets
out of the hospital,

but all the ones I've
talked to are so expensive.

Well, if money's the
problem, it doesn't have to be.

I can help.

That's... that's really
sweet of you to say,

but the truth is, I just...

I just don't feel comfortable

leaving my father
with a total stranger.

Well, how about
bringing him here to LA?

Well, it's gonna be
weeks before he can travel.

So, I have to go there.

You missed a spot.

Here? Mm-hmm.

You know, all the wind
sweeps the garbage up

on our side of the street,

so you should really sweep
it a couple times a day.

You're enjoying
this way too much.

When you're done with that,

there are a huge
stack of folders

that need to be
alphabetized and filed.

Anything else?

Not that I can think of.

No time like the present, go on.

I'm gonna get you for
this, you know that?

Take it up with your
probation officer.

Leah, I thought you'd gone home.

No, but if I'm in the way...

No, no, you're fine.

I know the doctor's
already seen me.

It's just, I'm... I'm not...

I just wanted to rest.

Is there someplace you can go?

A friend's house?

Somewhere where you're safe?

You know, um, I think
maybe I should be going.

I know what it's like to be
hurt by somebody you love.

You blame yourself.

You think you deserve
what you got, but you don't.

Why are you telling me this?

Because you can
change your situation.

There are places you can go,

people will help you with abuse.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

You're not alone in this.

I was in a car accident, okay?

A fender bender.

Nothing more, nothing less.

We need to talk about something.

It's about grandpa. You see,

he's very sick, so we need to go

to Montana to be with him,

to help make him better.

I like California.

Oh, I know, sweetie.

I do, too.

But sometimes we
have to do things

we don't want to do.

Is this your lion?

It's very good.

I said I'm not going!

I feel terrible.

Well, I know how he feels.

How long are you gonna be gone?

I don't know,

but all this moving around
isn't good for Zach, so...

If I find him a good school

in Montana... What?

You'll stay?

Yeah, I think I might.

Oh, man.

I must've called
Kelly 20 times today,

and she didn't
return one of them,

not one sticking phone call.

That's her loss. BRANDON:
Can I get an amen to that?

Amen. Amen.

Amen to that.

And then Donna,

she thinks I'm dirt for
not dissing my pal here.

Couldn't do it.

I wouldn't do it.

It wouldn't be prudent.

Care to testify, Brother Steve?

No, I don't care to testify.

There's a difference
between me and you guys.

I'm going to miss Carly.

You know, you are forgetting

one very important
thing, my man,

and that is that we are men.

Homo sapiens.

It's not in our nature
to be with one woman.

I've already had a smorgasbord.

She's the dish I want.

Does the mighty elephant
live with one elephant woman?

No, he doesn't. You
know what he does?

He lives by himself,
by his own terms.

Yeah, you know what?

You're right.

Leopards are the
same way. Mm-hmm.

Tigers, rhinos,
all the big hitters.

All the big hitters.
How'd you guys

learn all this about
these animals, huh?

'Cause I stay up late
watching the Nature Channel.

Did you see the one

about th-the animals
that eat their young?

Yes, yes, yes, it
was outstanding!

Oh, you guys, you're
scaring me, all right?

Steve, Steve,
Steve, Eating young.

I'm telling you,

it's a wild kingdom
out there, my brother.

And it is our job as
men to tame the jungle.

If we're supposed
to tame the jungle,

how come the women
call all the shots, huh?

Because we let them.

Because we let them,
because we deny our heritage

and try to be monogamous.

We will never be truly
happy until we give into

being the animals
that we truly are.

I'll give an amen to that.

Amen, brother!
Thank you very much.

Hallelujah!

I can give you a
ride if you want.

Oh, uh, my-my husband
should be here any minute.

Okay, I just didn't think
you'd want to see him so soon

after the car accident.

Lenny's really nice
to me when I'm sick.

He makes me breakfast in bed,

and he gets me

all my favorite movies
from the video store.

Here's my home number.

You can call any time

if you want to just talk.

You okay, babe?

Just tired.

Oh, sorry it took
me so long here,

but, uh, the boss
wouldn't let me go.

Leah needs some rest.
You'll see that she gets it?

Of course.

We're here if you need us.

What the hell were you
thinking, coming here?

He's going to hit her again.

You know it and I know it.

If she's honest, she knows it.

We did what we could.

Then why does it feel like
we didn't do anything at all?

Because that's how the
system works, for better or worse.

It's definitely worse.

If you want, we could
talk about this over drinks.

It's been a long day.

Look, you extended a hand.

If she's smart, she'll take it.

Walk you to your car?

Yeah, let me just
get my messages.

I can't believe
Brandon hasn't called.

Men are such slime, huh?

Wash the floors
before you go, Val.

Again?

Practice makes perfect.

Does the album itself

have like a central theme or...

We just, uh, do what
feels right, you know?

Right.

Man, I am starving,
what do we got?

How about Indian food?

No, it makes me sleepy.

I just woke up.

Hey, uh, how about pizza?

Pineapple. Gotta have pineapple.

Oh, hey, I forgot
to tell you guys.

I saw your show at the Dead
End a couple weeks ago.

It was dope. I...
I really liked it.

Hey, our first groupie.

You want to make up some
T-shirts, start a fan club?

Uh, um...

Now, do you guys
usually test out new songs

in front of an audience, or...

We're letting you
listen, aren't we?

Depends on our mood.

You look a little
stressed, David.

You, uh, want some help in
the relaxation department?

Marky is our
in-house Dr. Feelgood.

No, thanks, I'm fine.

A member of the clean-living
police, huh, groupie?

Your loss.

I want to talk to Kelly.
I don't think that's...

I have nothing to say to you.

Well, I have
plenty to say to you.

Are you drunk? Why
won't you talk to me?

I don't want to see
you like this, Brandon.

I'm not leaving
until you talk to me.

I don't want to hear it.

What's going on?

This is between me and Kelly.

I asked you to go.

I said I'm not leaving
until you talk to me.

Listen to me, I have
nothing to say to you, okay?

Now, get the hell out of
here before I call the police.

Hey. Morning.

Not so loud.

Are we a little hung over?

There's no such thing
as "a little hung over," Val.

You're either hung
over or you're not.

I definitely am.

Hmm.

So, have you heard from Kelly?

Not while sober.

I left nine messages
for her yesterday.

Actually, ten.

See, I'm doing my community
service at the, uh, clinic.

I know. Cruel and unusual,

but I left the messages
on her desk myself.

It's kind of weird.

Weird, rude, cruel.
Take your pick.

Come to think of it, she
was a little distracted.

Busy day? No, actually, it was

kind of slow; she was just
showing this new guy around.

Hmm. What's he do?

He's a third year
med student at USF.

Mid-20s, pretty adorable.

Nice try, Val.

I'm really not up for your
head games this morning.

It's not a game.

I saw him ask her out.

Well, Kelly's a big girl.

She can do what she wants.

Okay.

Hey, you know what?
I'm gonna get going.

I, uh, I got enough here
to finish up the article.

All-nighters are part
of the game, man.

If you want to be our
number one fan, get used to it.

I've got something
that'll wake you up.

No, thanks.

You really are a Boy
Scout, aren't you?

How long you been playing? Hmm?

Oh, I... Since I was a kid.

I used to write songs, too.

I bet you do a
killer "Chopsticks."

Why don't you, uh, why don't
you play something you wrote?

Come on, man, isn't it enough

we're letting the
guy hang with us?

Will you just let the guy play?

Oh... look, I've been
giving this some thought,

and, uh, you can't go.

Steve, we've been over this.

Carly, you still have four
months left on your lease.

Look, we can work this out.

We just need to think
it through a little harder.

You know what, it's a good thing

Donna took Zach
to the toy store.

He doesn't need any
more encouragement

to fight this move.

Please don't go.

Steve, please don't make this
any harder than it already is.

Harder?

How could it be harder?

I don't know what I'm
going to do without you.

I'm miserable and, um...
you haven't even left yet.

Come here.

Come here.

Leah, hi.

What are you doing here?

I got permission
from the Foundation

to get your work address.

I just wanted to
make sure you're okay.

I'm fine.

You sure? Yes.

Then why don't I believe you?

You want to go for a walk?

I'm gonna take my break now.

Yeah, okay.

Lenny and I were the Homecoming
King and Queen in high school.

Happiest couple, the works.

It was us against the world.

I have a friend Donna,
who a couple of years ago

was involved with
a guy who beat her.

She always felt
like it was her fault.

Wasn't till he broke
her arm that she realized

she had to break up with him.

I've been with
Lenny since I was 15.

He's my family.

Has he hit you before?

Not this bad.

And he said he wouldn't
do it again, right?

But he did.

Leah, 6,000 women die every
year from domestic violence.

He would never hurt me that bad.

He shouldn't hurt you at all.

We took a vow to stay
together for the rest of our lives.

Till death do us part.

That means something to me.

He needs counseling, Leah.

You know, he's just, he's
going through some rough times

at work, you know?

Things aren't
going all that well.

All right.

If you decide to leave,

this'll give you
advice on what to do.

Like starting a banking account,

how to find a shelter
where you'll feel safe.

It even tells you how to set
up signals with your neighbors

so they'll know when
you're in trouble.

Signals? It can be as easy

as turning your porch
light on during the day,

so they'll know
when to get you help.

Why is it so small?

It's designed to
fit in your shoe,

so Lenny won't find it
and beat you for having it.

So, is it true?

You're really a bookie?

Uh, I was a bookie.

Now I'm paying my debt
to society, you know?

You couldn't be doing
that in a better place.

Hmm.

Everyone I've met is terrific.

You mean Kelly?

Eh. I don't blame you.

I mean, she's
beautiful and smart

and very dedicated
to helping people.

You couldn't do much better.

You feel pretty
strongly about her.

You have no idea.

I got the impression
she was taken.

No, actually, she just
broke up with her boyfriend.

She's very available.

I really like her.

Listen, don't quote
me on this, okay?

But, um, we were kind of
talking this morning, and uh...

she thinks you're
really adorable.

I think if you ask her out
again, she'll say yes this time.

As long as you're
handicapping it,

I guess I'll take
your word for it.

Thanks. Yeah.

Hi. Uh, Kelly Taylor?

Yeah. That's, that's me. Thanks.

You're welcome.

Oh, these are beautiful. Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

Um, excuse me.

Do you have another card?

Uh, yeah, sure.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Hmm.

Slow down, man.

You know, I send her flowers.

She can't even pick up
the phone to thank me.

How are we supposed to fix
this thing if she won't talk to me?

You got to give her some space.

That's what she wants, right?

Yeah, I guess. Hey, slow down.

What the hell was that?

I don't know. Let's find out.

Hey! Whoa!

Hi, can I help you?
Yeah. I'm the guy

you almost killed at the
intersection back there.

Sorry. I didn't see you.

Yeah, of course you didn't
see me because you weren't

paying attention,
were you? No, I...

Huh? You know your vehicle
is equipped with three mirrors.

One, two, three. See those?

Come on, man. Get
your hands off me!

You're out of control, man.

It's a mother of two kids.

Don't bother. I've
already read it.

Why am I not surprised?

Well, you didn't
hear it from me,

but your little secret
admirer? It's Jeff.

What happened?

I stayed late at work.

Lenny gets mad if I'm not
home when he gets there.

Let's get her in the exam room.

See, things aren't going
really well for Lenny, you know,

and we have payments...
I wanted the overtime.

Did he hit you anywhere else?

Don't protect him.

Here.

It's okay.

Okay.

I'm gonna order
X-rays of your cheek

and ribs to see if
there's nothing broken.

You have to move out
before this goes any further.

I don't have any money.

Where could I go?

There are shelters,
organizations,

they'll give you
a place to stay.

I want you to know,

I am gonna report
this to the police.

Don't do that. Please.

Your husband has
committed a terrible crime.

I know that.

I'm just scared.

Of course you are.

I'm... I'm really scared

of what he'll do to
me if I leave him.

Well, we're scared of
what he'll do if you stay.

The shelters that
you talked about,

do you think that maybe I
could get into one tonight?

Yeah.

If you need anything,
anything at all,

just say the word.

But right now...

you are an official customer.

Thanks for everything, Nat.

Hey.

Val and Kel are
stuck at the clinic,

so they wanted me
to give you a big hug.

Thank you.

So you're gonna be a cowboy

when you grow up, huh?

Dude, you get to ride horses.

And join the rodeo.

There's no rodeo there.

Yes, there is. Is not.

You bet there is,
buddy... They got...

they got broncs to buck
you, they got calves to rope,

they got steers to
ride, they got sheep to...

Shear.

Is that true, Mom?

Sure is.

Can I be in a rodeo?

Can I?

Thanks a lot, boys.

- It's our pleasure.
- Here you go.

This is for you and Zach.

We thought it would
come in handy.

Oh, my gosh, look!

You guys.

Wow.

Look!

All right!

Wow! It's beautiful!

Oh, my gosh.

You guys...

Thank you so much.

Well, uh...

I'm not really good
at speeches, so, um...

I just want to say that I'm
really gonna miss you guys.

This has been the best
three months of my life.

I just got off the phone
with the Women's Center.

Leah's checked in.

Oh, that is such a relief. Yeah.

You know, you were
really great with her.

Well, I was in a bad
situation recently,

so I know how
hard it is to move on.

Did he hit you? No, no, no.

But he hurt you.

Very much.

I love my flowers.

Well, I hope they cheer you up.

They do.

You know, that invitation
for drinks still stands.

Well, then I think
I'll take you up on it.

Great.

Oh, just one second.

Val,

scrub all the toilets and the
floors before you go, okay?

Why don't you get lost.

You know, the courts
are gonna be calling

for an evaluation
before they set you free.

Happy cleaning.

Wyatt Clinic.

Hey, Val, it's me.

Uh, just calling to see
if Kelly got my flowers.

Yeah, she did.

They're beautiful.

Can I talk to her?

Actually, she
and Jeff just left.

I overheard them going
to dinner or something.

Are you lying to me, Val?

No. I wish I was.

I mean, truth be told,
I can't stand Kelly,

but I hate to see you hurt.

All right, I'll
talk to you later.

Hey. You left the party
pretty early back there.

I said all my good-byes.

Hey.

You gonna hear me out or not?

Depends on what you got to say.

I've been spending a lot of time

with Brandon lately... It
made me take another look

at his whole breakup with Kelly.

I'm listening.

The guy's reeling.

And it made me realize
how messed up he is

over the whole thing.

And how it cost him.

Good.

Look, I wouldn't do that to you.

Hey.

You can trust me.

I want to be able to.

I'm telling you right now you
got nothing to worry about.

Okay?

I hate traveling so late,
but it was the only flight

we could get with
such short notice.

You know, uh, I thought
this would be easier.

I guess I was just...
kidding myself.

I can't believe
you're really going.

Flight 594 to Denver

and Missoula, Montana,
is now boarding at Gate 17.

That's us.

Zach, honey?

Hey, what's this?

It's a picture I drew.

Did you make
this all by yourself?

Yep. Really?

Uh-huh.

It's the best
present I ever got.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Final call for flight 594.

All ticketed passengers
should be on board at this time.

Ah,

come here.

I'll miss you, buddy.

I love you.

Hi, honey.

Hello. Mmm...

You know, I don't think
I've ever been kissed

by a... convicted
criminal before.

I think I liked it.

Really?

Mmm. Mmm.

Listen, um...

you haven't said anything
about the arrest, and...

I just want to say
that I'm sorry about...

Val, you don't have to.

Well, we've had trust
issues in the past,

and I just... I just don't
want to have them again.

Fine, apology accepted.

So, did you finish your article?

No, but I did sell one of my
old songs to Jasper's Law.

Really? David,
that-that's great!

Uh, wh-what's it about?

What's it called?
Tell me everything.

It's just an old song I wrote.

Well, is it a fast one,
a slow one, what?

It's in between.

Okay.

Oh, this calls for a
celebration, right?

I'm so proud of you.

Mm! Champagne?

What are you doing here?

I know you said

you wanted some space, but...

I need to talk to you,

and you haven't
returned any of my calls.

What calls?

Let's make a deal, okay?

No games.

I never play any games, Brandon.

I miss you, Kel...

and I love you,

and...

I feel terrible about
what happened.

I'm looking for
another shot here.

I'm nowhere... nowhere
near ready for that.

Does it have anything to do
with that new doctor at the clinic?

Excuse me, but how
long were we broken up

before you slept with Emma?

Oh, that's right, we weren't.

I want another chance.

I can't give you that.

Maybe not now...

Maybe not ever.

Kelly...

You should just go,

Brandon.

Kelly, wait.

Just go.
